“…In fact, several of the earliest medical descriptions of AN in the 19th century highlighted that the sufferers' reasons for self-starvation typically were inappetence, feelings of fullness and abdominal pain or constipation [2]. Likewise, contemporary descriptions of EDs from non-Western countries, e.g., Hong Kong, emphasise that gastrointestinal symptoms are a common justification for self-starvation in AN [3].…”

“…However, the DSM-V revised this ED type and called it "Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder" (OSFED). Moreover, the DSM-V introduced the definition of Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) that was distinct from AN and BN in that there is no body image disturbance [2].The first description of AN in the 19th century revealed that the sufferers' reasons for self-starvation generally were strictly connected to inappetence, feelings of fullness and abdominal pain or constipation [12,13]. Since then, a wide range of GI symptoms in ED patients has been described [14].More recently, a prospective study reported that the majority of ED patients complained of postprandial fullness (96%) and abdominal distention (90%) [15], and pooled GI symptoms were significantly correlated with hypochondriasis, producing a deleterious influence of psychiatric comorbidities on GI discomfort [15].BED co-occurs with a variety of psychiatric disorders, especially mood (54.2%), anxiety (37.1%) and substance use disorders (24.8%) [16].…”

Eating disorders (ED) are frequently associated with a wide range of psychiatric or somatic comorbidities. The most relevant ED are anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), and binge eating disorders (BED). Patients with ED exhibit both upper and lower gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. Evidence of alterations throughout the GI tract in ED will be analyzed given the role of the GI tract in food intake and its regulation. It remains a matter of debate whether GI disorders are inherent manifestations of ED or the results of malnutrition occurring from ED. Moreover, recent clinical studies have highlighted the growing role of intestinal microbiota in the pathogenesis of ED, making it possible to hypothesize a modulation of intestinal microbiota as a co-adjuvant to standard therapy. The aim of this review is to analyze the link between ED and GI diseases and to present, where known, the potential key factors underlying these conditions. Conclusions: The presence of GI disorders should be investigated in patients with ED. Screening for ED should also be encouraged in individuals seeking treatment for unexplained GI complaints to better address therapeutic issues that surround these difficult medical conditions. Nutrients 2019, 11, 3038 3 of 17 ED can be associated with anxiety or mood disorders; insomnia; as well as somatic complications such as cardiac alterations, hormonal imbalances and also a wide range of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms [3].Prevalence estimate of lifetime AN is 0.8% [4]. The overall incidence rate of AN is around 7 per 100,000 persons; however, it is higher in 15-19 year old girls reaching 109.2 cases per 100,000. The incidence is increasing in Italy and other Western countries probably due to earlier diagnosis or earlier onset [5,6].The prevalence of BN is 0.28% [4]. The highest incidence rate of BN is 300 per 100,000 persons in women aged between 16 and 20 [7], although the age at onset is decreasing [5].BED are described in 0.85% of the population [4,8] and are frequently associated with medical comorbidities, especially obesity and its complications such as Type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia [9]. Furthermore, BED may occur in a subset ranging from 27% to 47% in severely obese persons undergoing bariatric surgery [10].The previous edition of DSM (DSM-IV) [11], classified as "Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified (EDNOS)", is the ED that does not satisfy all the diagnostic criteria for AN or BN. Previously, EDNOS contained a huge and varied group of individuals and was the most commonly diagnosed ED. However, the DSM-V revised this ED type and called it "Other Specified Feeding or Eating Disorder" (OSFED). Moreover, the DSM-V introduced the definition of Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) that was distinct from AN and BN in that there is no body image disturbance [2].The first description of AN in the 19th century revealed that the sufferers' reasons for self-starvation generally were strictly connected to inappetence, feelings of fullness and abdominal ...
